Rio - First stop on the gringo trail

First stop in South America is Rio, we get a sweet little hostal just off the Copacabana, I throw in a little photo of the beach for ye, thats actually Ipanema. All that stuff you hear a about brazilian women, its all true although the picture doesn´t exactly prove it.








That little statue on the left is Christo Redentor, taken for the Sugar Loaf. Its pretty far away so the picture quality aint great so I got a close up below.
